Narrative:

While conducting a flight in a 350 king air we approached the cincinnati lunken late at night. The tower was closed for the night. The en route center handed us over to the local advisory frequency and I switched to the published CTAF frequency of 118.7. After dutifully announcing our position and intentions at regular intervals in the approach and landing sequence we landed and were just off of the runway at the taxiway when a single engine aircraft climbed out just above and behind us. I made note that there were no radio calls on the CTAF at anytime during our approach and arrival. The real surprise came when I went inside the FBO and heard several aircraft in the pattern landing and taking off all announcing their intentions and position on the unicom frequency of 122.95. As a safety precaution, on arrival and deping airports with closed control towers, we now monitor both the CTAF and unicom. There needs to be an aggressive information campaign by the FAA to educate the pilot community to what is probably a common problem nationwide. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: the reporter elicited little new information. He did stress his surprise and concern that the traffic pattern had several aircraft making advisories on unicom and he had just arrived using the correct CTAF frequency and thought he was the only airplane in the area.

THERE NEEDS TO BE AN AGGRESSIVE INFO CAMPAIGN BY THE FAA TO EDUCATE THE PLT COMMUNITY TO WHAT IS PROBABLY A COMMON PROB NATIONWIDE. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: THE RPTR ELICITED LITTLE NEW INFO.
